Why Thirsty is a restaurant that has been serving good food for over 7 years. It is located in a plaza with easy parking and is open from 11AM to 9:30PM. The restaurant is known for its popcorn chicken, which is a must-try, though some find it a little dry but with spot-on flavor. The fried pork chops are also popular for being crispy and delicious, and the fried fish filet with dry noodles is a standout—perfectly fried with a thin, crispy exterior and tender inside. The menu also includes braised pork rice, beef stew noodle, stir-fried pork tenderloin, and various teas.
The service at Why Thirsty is excellent, with the staff being attentive, friendly, and accommodating. The food is reasonably priced and freshly prepared, so there is a wait time of 10-20 minutes. The restaurant has a clean and comfortable ambiance with plenty of chairs and tables.
While some dishes like the beef noodles can be too salty and the braised pork rice slightly dry, the overall experience is positive. The stir-fried pork tenderloin is well-seasoned with a clean, delicious flavor, and the portions are generous. The place has a cozy vibe and remains a favorite for tasty Taiwanese-style food and amazing drinks. Despite minor issues, Why Thirsty is a great option for those looking for good Asian food.
